ABSTRACT:
An ethane-rich fraction for refilling the refrigerant circuit, using an ethane-containing refrigerant in a process for liquefaction of a hydrocarbon-rich fraction, is obtained by removing a partial flow of liquefied hydrocarbon-rich fraction and supplying same to a C.sub.1 /C.sub.2 /C.sub.3+ separation column. Roughly in the middle of this C.sub.1 /C.sub.2 /C.sub.3+ separation column, an ethane-rich fraction is withdrawn and, optionally after intermediate storage in a buffer tank, is added to the ethane-containing refrigerant.
